Not sure what you'd expect with the dumpster fire Butch Jones left Tennessee with

Jeremy Pruitt is a football coach, not a firefighter

So what is Kirby's excuse for losing by 30 in his first year to Ole Miss? He inherited more talent and better coached kids from Right



I'm not sold on Pruitt being a good coach, but I am sold on Butch Jones being a program wrecker

so there was more than enough talent to beat wv at 43, but pruitt failed as a coach so they lost

Pruitt will earn the right to be shite on, don't you worry. Right now, he just isn't there yet

I'm still not done trashing Tennessee for their annual hyping of Butch Jones

Tennessee just may challenge Kentuck and Missouri for worst team in the SEC.

Vandy is already circling the date and adding in the "W."

i saw enough to see that Tennessee played hard and physical, which is all you can ask.

grier was on fire in the second half and there wasn't anything the vols could do about it.

discipline is back, though. proot had his guys fighting.

Those recruiting rankings aren't really reflective of the talent on WVUs team. We take in a lot of transfers like Grier, Simmons, Norwood, and the guys from USC and Clemson on the DL. Each one of those 5 guys were 4 and 5 stars, plus we get a lot of JUCO guys like Sills who is the best WR in the country

We have talent at the skills positions. That's not the problem. The problem is that Jones and Dooley both were terrible at recruiting linemen. A lack of talent on OL/DL gets you killed against good teams every time.

It might have declined somewhat by the end, but Butch did leave talent on that team. Poor recruiting wasn't one of the 713 black marks against him as a coach.

Na man. Our whole team is a bunch of soft, slaw-arse garbage, the coaching sucks, etc etc. We should expect a new coach to have his defense shutting down a high-powered offense immediately. Who cares that they are in a scheme which they weren't recruited to play?
